I was idly browsing browser (heh) market share graphs when I noticed there was a bump for Chrome in Asia.

None of the obvious countries had it, but I eventually traced it back to unlikely Vietnam. What happened there?! Why did Chrome crush all other browsers in may all of a sudden?

Also pure speculation: this might be the user agent that any AI scraping bots are reporting to be.

IIRC there was a point in time that the version of chrome was being reported incorrectly a few years ago
